Calcination process in rotary kiln synthesizes and coordinates control method and system
Technical field
The present invention relates to automatic control technology fields, and in particular to during a kind of clinker burning of electrolytic aluminium carbon anode
The control method and system of rotary kiln.
Background technique
Carbon anode plays a very important role in aluminium cell production process, it is as conductor by iontophoresis
Electrolytic cell, and anode reaction process is participated in as anode electrolytic cell material.One ton of primary aluminum of every production will consume 500 kilograms or so
Carbon anode.Therefore, every quality index of carbon anode directly influences the normal production and yield, the matter of primary aluminum of electrolytic cell
Every technical-economic indexes such as amount, charcoal consumption and power consumption.
The important equipment of the clinker burning of carbon anode is carbon rotary kiln, the quality of rotary kiln running situation, direct shadow
Ring the yield and quality and energy consumption of charcoal element clinker.Its equipment has the characteristics that following several respects:
1) rotary kiln is one big inertia, large time delay, the control object there are time-varying parameter, even simplest time
Rotary kiln, motion process of the material in kiln are also nonlinearity, complexity, it is not only related to complicated heat transfer, Mass Transfer Apparatus
Reason, it is also closely related with the material characteristic of substance in kiln;
2) key process parameter is difficult to measurement accurately and timely, and the major part of kiln structure is in turn state, detection
Instrument is typically only capable to be mounted on the both ends of kiln, and key process parameter is caused to be difficult to measurement accurately and timely, thus we be difficult it is fixed
Thermal technology state in the description closing kiln of amount;The ambiguity of this parameter information leads to tradition so that the difficulty of modeling is very big
Control strategy be difficult to carry out;
3) control means are diversified, and coupling phenomenon is serious between each control means;Its control means include rotary kiln revolving speed,
The various controls means such as feeding coal, negative pressure, cyclone dust removal and two, tertiary air quantity, every kind of control means all may be used under certain operating condition
To have an impact positive and negative two kinds of trend of calcined by rotary kiln, to cause the steady point region of serious coupling, the work of Rotary Kiln Control
The problems such as narrow, it is difficult to find control means preferably fitting method.
External some national (such as U.S.) have been realized in the automatic control of carbon rotary kiln, but China is in this respect
Research and development falls behind relatively, consequently leads to level of the index lower than these countries of calcining production.The latter stage eighties, in work
The country of industry prosperity generally realizes the computer twin-stage Stabilization Control of calcination process in rotary kiln.Wherein with France
SATERAM company and R&D company of Switzerland are the burner and control system of representative, leader in the world calcining petroleum coke produce
Most advanced level, not only increase carbon block calcining homogenieity, reduce the specific energy consumption of calcining furnace, and promote environmental protection
Effect improves economic benefit.
The country initially enters the calcination process in rotary kiln computer control application stage from the beginning of the eighties.For a long time, scientific research
Technical staff has conducted extensive research work, mathematical model is combined with kiln temperature control, the method for introducing automatic control, more
Family's calcination process in rotary kiln has carried out computer control and has attempted.For example, Yunnan Aluminium Works, Guizhou Aluminum Factory, Baotou Aluminium Plant etc. are in difference
Computer automation control has been carried out to calcination process in rotary kiln in degree, has there is certain effect.But calcination process in rotary kiln meter
For calculation machine controlled level compared with industrially developed country, starting evening, gap are bigger, and develop very uneven.To being at present
Only, quite a few domestic calcination process in rotary kiln is still manually operated, in addition technology falls behind, working environment is severe, if
It is standby outmoded, it causes rotary kiln to be chronically at uneconomical state, seriously affects calcined coke quality.Meanwhile labor productivity is low, energy consumption
Greatly, environmental pollution is serious.These gaps seriously threaten the survival and development to China's Aluminum, largely reduced it and participate in international city
The ability of field competition.
Existing carbon rotary kiln calcining control technology is primarily present following defect:
1) petroleum coke raw material calcination process temperature in rotary kiln can achieve 1200~1300 DEG C, and the refinement of charcoal element lattice causes
Densification, to meet calcined coke real density, specific resistance index;But the measurement of domestic calcining belt temperature is coarse, cannot really reflect
Calcining belt temperature, position, length data, burning zone formed control entirely lean on operator's experience manual adjustment, automatically control still
It is blank;
2) most of rotary kiln structures are divided into process automation grade and two layers of Basic automation level, but in mistake
In process automation control process, since site environment influences the complexity with rotary kiln own system, so general control systems
In control means be mostly the operation of single amount;But the operation of unitary variant is so that the coupling of the variable and other control variables is closed
System is difficult to exclude, and system is difficult to run to by way of optimization on more excellent stable point;
3) third level Multimode Control and fault diagnosis system is added, changes the Two-level Control communication topology knot of original system
Structure is not carried out DCS (Distributed Control System), and third level Multimode Control and fault diagnosis system can not be with following two-stages
System carries out valid data communication, to cannot achieve the Automated library system monitoring control of rotary calciner technique overall process.
